Bosch – Duraterm Glow Plugs (Part No.F1100117865BOS)

Duraterm Glow Plugs

from

$13.79
Bosch Duraterm Glow Plug Technology With a long history of diesel fuel injection expertise and innovation, Bosch leads the way in glow plug technology with its patented Duraterm dual-control coil design. This technology utilizes a self-regulating system that reduces glow wait time by more than 50%. The patented dual control regulating and heating coil system effectively directs current draw, enabling the glow plug to reach higher temperatures more quickly for faster engine start-up. For vehicles with a post-glow control system, this advanced technology results in a post-glow heating phase which allows for more efficient overall engine performance.

Product Features:
  • Glow plug reaches higher temperatures more quickly for fast engine start-up
  • Regulating coil controls current draw for rapid heat-up of heating coil
  • Heating coil provides rapid heat-up of the glow tube and quick start-up
  • Glow tube material resists corrosion and vibration for long service life
  • Fine-grained ceramic insulating powder provides superior electrical insulation and high thermal conductivity
  • Twin Viton seals protect coils from exhaust gas damage for long life
  • Connectors designed to OE specifications precise fit and easy installation

MSD Ignition – Crank Trigger Kit; Small Block Chevy; 8? CT Wheel (Part No.8615)

Crank Trigger Kit; Small Block Chevy; 8? CT Wheel

from

$499.99
For a long time, racers have known that one of the best things to do to an engine to improve its performance is to stabilize the ignition timing. The MSD flying magnet crank trigger system does exactly that by using magnets embedded in an aluminum wheel. The MSD flying magnet crank trigger uses four magnets secured in the aluminum trigger wheel that pass by a stationary non-magnetic pick-up to trigger the ignition. This flying magnet design produces accurate trigger signals and the non-magnetic pick-up cannot be false triggered. Each flying magnet crank trigger includes a two-piece mounting bracket for the non-magnetic pick-up that in most cases will work on either the passenger side or driver’s side of the engine (the SB Chrysler and SB Ford brackets mount on only one side). The adjustable bracket provides a wide range of timing adjustment and spacers are included. These systems will trigger MSD 6, 7, 8 and 10 series ignitions and all MSD timing accessories.

Product Features:
  • 8 in. Diameter
  • Absolutely the most accurate way to trigger the ignition.
  • The non-magnetic pickup cannot be false triggered.
  • Powerful magnets are embedded in a billet aluminum trigger wheel.
